The promotion team held a "Vaccination Victimization Investigation Team Meeting" composed of pediatrics and adolescents, physicians, and forensic experts the day before. After analyzing the causal relationship between 8 deaths and vaccination, the above conclusions were reached.
The promotion team stated that since these 8 cases did not have severe allergic reactions (anaphylaxis), it was preliminarily determined that there was no direct causal relationship between the adverse reactions after vaccination and the cause of death.
The promotion team stated that it is conducting autopsy on 4 of the 8 cases and will conduct further evaluation after the autopsy results are released.
In addition, the promotion team is still conducting epidemiological investigations on serious adverse reaction cases including deaths other than these eight.
